19/7/91.
In the quietness of the Sunday, dear Mr Stirling, I have written what appears to me the best finishing off for your highly valuable Report from a rural point of view.1 It is better, to do this in a readable form, than to give a dry list of plants, especially as that would become very long, if it was to be complete. It will be important, that Mr Howitt should introduce this report by a memorandum from his own experience.2
Regardfully your
Ferd. von Mueller.
It would be desirable, that the exact area of the Victorian Alps should be calculated for this Report.
